The following are general purpose brazing alloys, suitable to join easily a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous base materials (steel, copper, brass, etc.).
Available in many different presentation forms (rods, flux-coated rods, wires, strips, rings, preforms, pastes and powders), they are very free flowing, ductile and strong.
All these alloys do not contain Cadmium, do not present the Health & Safety concerns associated with Cadmium-Bearing Alloys and are compliant with the RoHS regulation.
They are divided in two categories: alloys with Tin, and alloys without Tin;
Tin being used to lower the melting temperature of the alloy.
When brazing in an oxidizing environment (that is: in air), the use of a proper flux is required.
